Yeah heard it can break skin pretty easily.

I'm surprised its not more common, being able to train with your actual carry gun against an attacker would be better than some airshit with no recoil or snapcaps etc.

Probably because some moron would eventually kill someone by loading the wrong ammunition and that's bad for business.

So, the Roman Legion vs. the Phalanx.

Anyone who knows their history knows that the Romans defeated the Phalanx with their scutum and short swords. But whenever you try to look up how they did it, you're always given non-helpful summaries of the tactics involved. Statements like "Because the Roman Legion was more mobile."

More mobile, sure. Was the Phalanx incapable of pivoting, though? Did they just stand there and watch as Roman legionaries just casually walked around them? In the cases where the Romans came face to face with the phalanx, they were up against professional soldiers, so I somehow doubt that this was the case.

Looking up the events of a single battle doesn't much help, either. When the Romans went up against the Greeks, for example, it was a conquest that took years and many battles to achieve. I can't imagine that flukes like the Romans attacking the Phalanx when it wasn't prepared repeated themselves in every battle.

I have a few theories as to how, on the local level, legionarries could have overcome a Phalanx formation - but these are just spitballed, and I still highly doubt that it was this simple. Regardless, all I could come up with:

1) Front ranks of a roman maniple/cohort/whatever have you form up their shield wall against the spear wall, and the rear ranks 'spill' forward over the sides of the two formations, surrounding the phalanx. This idea is probably born of the difficulty I personally have of understanding rigid formation fighting.

2) The romans hold their scuta at an angle and slope them, pushing the pikes up and away as they advance. This is a wild guess, as I'm unsure if weapons like the Sarissa could punch through the scutum or not.

Help me understand, /k/. Outside of strategic factors, how did the Roman legionary surmount the phalanx? How did the shield and short sword defeat the spear/pike?

There's already another thread; read the catalog first.

>>35122063


And here is what I posted:

Here is a parts list. I know that some of these are "sold out". This is just to show you what you might need. The McKay bolt/firing pin assembly have been sold out for a long time and I bought mine off Gunbroker for just $250 together. Look around everywhere, there are many websites that carry them. This is just a list and links so you can see what you'll want.


>McKay SA receiver; $239.00

http://www.mckay-ent.com/uzi-semi-auto-receiver-shell-126.html

***IF YOU ARE GOOD AT WELDING; BUY THIS INSTEAD FOR $99. You will have to only weld in the bolt blocking bar and the trunion, it's very easy to do: http://www.mckay-ent.com/uzi/uzi-semi-auto-receiver-shell.html**

>McKay Bolt/Firing Pin $279 but can be found for $150-200; look around

This is the hardest part to find and typically the most expensive. You can find it WAY cheaper on other websites and on Gunbroker/Armslist like I did (I got the receiver/bolt for $250 and just had to buy the parts kit, barrel, Allumahyde II, etc etc etc).

http://www.mckay-ent.com/uzi/uzi-semi-auto-bolt-assembly.html

http://www.mckay-ent.com/uzi/uzi-16-barrel.html

>McKay 16" barrel - $109

http://www.mckay-ent.com/uzi/uzi-16-barrel.html

These are great; if you want a fancy chrome lined one, Green Mountain has them for $150. You can also have the regular 10 inch barrel, but you wont get to use the cool wood or folding stock since anything with a barrel that short + a stock is an SBR.

>Uzi Parts kit - $179 regular but $100-120 on sale

https://www.apexgunparts.com/uzi-parts-kit-w-collapsible-steel-stock-type-2-demil-israeli-military-industries-good-to-very-good.html

Wood stock

https://www.apexgunparts.com/uzi-parts-kit-w-wooden-fixed-stock-type-2-demil-israeli-military-industries-good-to-very-good.html

That's it. You can buy a sling, extra mags, etc with Google.

And finally, here's the guide I used the most:

Give it a browse, it'll show you what you'll be doing.
Feel free to ask more questions. In the future if you go through with this build, ask your questions in the Gun Building/Gunsmithing thread. I always check those to help people with their Uzi's; call me "Uzibro".

I don't trip though, I'm not faggot.
I posted a lot more information as well as well as answered questions. If you have any more questions, ask me in either thread.

Don't buy the faggot semi auto parts and 16" barrel. The first ruins the function and reliability and the second ruins the aesthetic.
Protip: just because you have a gun doesn't mean you need to post pictures everywhere and tell everyone about it.

So /k/, I have a question. How big of a bomb would we need to drop into the eye of a CATV hurricane like Irma to disrupt it's momentum and stop it? Would it have to be a nuke or would something smaller do the job?

Also what would be your gun of choice for your journey through deserted towns to loot, pillage, and rape what you want and become criminal scum while LEOs wouldn't be able to really stop you?

If I had to guess id say at least 200 megatons. Maybe half a gigaton.
Honestly this would be cheaper than all the damage these hurricanes cause and with An ultra efficient 3 stage bomb not much fallout would be made. Most would sink into the ocean.

I wonder how much plutonium such a bomb would use. My only concern would be using up a lot of or all of our limited supply of plutonium and uranium just to disrupt storms.

Would it be feasible at all to carry just a scoped bolt action rifle and a sidearm?
>>
>>35133952
Yeah but new advances would be made eventually. And bombs would be a lot cheaper. And if it was a government thinking other contracted and pay someone to do it or spin taxpayer money on it. And anti storm tax. Also is there a better alternative than using bombs

Real talk: How would ballistics work inside a hurricane?

Has there ever been a real battle inside of one?

/k/, how easy is it to detect IEDs and landmines with the naked eyes?

is there a 100% guaranteed chance that you'll see them before stepping, or are there some that are too well hidden to be seen? (any examples of this?)

If you can visually spot ied or landmine than someone done piss poor job placing it.

Their job is killing not area denial.
>>
landmines are buried and camuflated by the natural environment and with enough time they get almost invisible if you don't have the exact locations writed on.
They even "move" from the original position over the years because something about rain and earth plaques

I had a conversation with an 11b at the VA, I was an 0311. He was telling me about the different machines they have that sweep that stuff.

I never saw any of that. My ass used a bamboo stick with bone fragment attached on the end, I think from a dead dog. You got to sweep the dirt for wire, because it's buried. They mostly used live wire because we had signal blockers.

Sounds old school but it worked, my unit found more than any other.

I was just outside on my porch smoking a cig and I heard this very weird sound, seemed like it was coming from the woods behind my garage, maybe 20-30 yards away.
it sounded like a whiney groan making an "oooooo" sound, maybe like a high pitched whale noise. it's hard to describe. reminded me of the sound those flying monsters make from that one movie Pitch Black with Vin Diesel.
Anyway I looked up, tried to discern what it was. and about 10 seconds later I heard it again, but this time it was very close, 10-15 yards away. I walked back inside, locked the door and loaded my hi power.
the reason I was so spooked is because I live in an earth contact house and it's very easy to get on the roof, and I didn't hear any thuds coming from above but it was so close so quick after the first time.
does anyone know what kind of animal makes that noise?
